Workshop on New Frontiers for Deep Learning in Robotics

9:00 am, 15 JULY 2017

RSS 2017, MIT, Boston, USA

Niko Sünderhauf

Robotics: Science and Systems (RSS) Conference 2017

In this workshop a wide range of renowned experts will discuss deep learning techniques at the frontier of research that are not yet widely adopted, discussed, or well-known in the robotics community.

We carefully selected research topics such as Bayesian deep learning, generative models, or deep reinforcement learning for planning and navigation that are of high relevance and potentially groundbreaking for robotic perception, learning, and control. The workshop introduces these techniques to the robotics audience, but also exposes participants from the machine learning community to real-world problems encountered by robotics researchers that apply deep learning in their research.

Where and When?

The workshop is organised in conjunction with the Robotics: Science and Systems conference (RSS) at MIT, Boston, USA and takes place on July 15, 2017.
